Zine Review - Nobody can eat 50 eggs #25

This huge issue is by far one of my favorites, and has a lot of Steve Steiner artwork in it, but the real hilarity is in the writing. “How to be a Mad Scientist” is very, VERY funny,
with such sub notes as, “Physical Traits of a Mad Scientist, Perfecting the Evil Laugh, Setting up a Laboratory, Assistants & Henchmen, Obtaining test subjects, Experimentation / Evil

Schemes and Fighting the Government” and ends with the cool quiz, “What kind of criminal are you?” Very funny, can be had by contacting him directly:

Zine Review - Hiphop Don’t Stop Number 5

December 14th 2006 16:20

HHDS 5 begins with an interesting discussion about Cell Phones in the HipHop community, then follows with an Article entitled, ‘the wonders of possibility’ which discusses
writer’s block. I suffer from writer’s block from time to time, so found the article very interesting. I like Tyler’s article about goals, it’s very introspective, just like much of his writing.

Good stuff, as usual.

Snippet:

“Lucky for you dear reader, I’m not such a jerk that I don’t TRY to remember who the people I meet are. It’s just that I’m not that good at remembering names, but now that
I’ve actually identified this behavioral problem within myself it is something I’m working on. A new year’s resolution of sorts; something to write home about to make my mother proud.
Dear mom, I’m meeting tons of new people, and I even remember some of their names! She would be happy for me, I’m sure”

Zine Review - Hiphop Don’t Stop Number 4

HHDS 4 begins with a critical look at postmodernism, and how Tyler reconciles it in his personal life. I like that kind of introspection in a person, and Tyler
follows it up with a few paragraphs about writing on the backs of envelopes. Articles about Flags of the World and design concepts, a humorous bit about a falling
skeleton, and some bits of collage conclude the work.

Snippet:

“This has seriously created many problems for me. I’m stuck analyzing all sorts of media I used to like and asking if they have substance. What do I do
when I find bands that I like that are all style? Do I stop listening to them or do I fully embrace them and life a full and happy life as a pomo sort of guy? Is it ok just
to ignore it and hope for the best?
